Rating 72.1

Located near the banks of Swift Creek, Lochmere Golf Club has plenty of water incorporated into the layout, coming into play on nearly every hole. The golf course stretches across a lush, gently rolling landscape sprinkled with mature trees and ponds. The terrain showcases the best in Triangle golf. At just over 6,600 yards it is not particularly long, but it provides plenty of challenges. It is a tight course that will test your accuracy with narrow fairways lined with trees. The small greens that are heavily protected by well placed bunkers demand thoughtful strategy and pinpoint control. The golf course offers a fair challenge but it is still accessible for beginners, especially from the forward tees. Lochmere G.C. is a favorite among Cary locals, both for its enjoyable design and its affordable rates.

Poor Condition

Greens were recently top dressed but in good shape. Tee boxes were absolutely barren. Almost like hitting out of a waste area on every tee shot. Needs a lot of work.

Good for the price and location

Not bad overall. Greens were in great shape and the amenities overall are decent. The track itself is very wet. There is a lot of water overall, but there was standing water everywhere - ponds and streams that are not really meant to be there. For early spring though, not bad - especially for the price.

Great Winter Golf Day

Greens are in great condition. Ground crews work hard to keep greens in this great condition by covering when temps require it. Traps in great shape also. Pace of play was very good today.
